FT12 Cast Iron Float/Orifice Trap for High Capacity Applications Description The FT12 is a unique steam trap which combines a large fixed orifice to handle very high condensate loads up to differential pressures of 4 bar. An integral float trap mechanism provides a variable capacity in addition to the orifce. Minimum flowrates are required to avoid blowthrough and these depend on the orifice selected A, B, C or D. The FT12 is manufactured in cast iron with DN150 (6") flanged connections. It is designed specifically for the sugar industry, which has inherently low pressure, high load steam systems. Standards This product fully complies with the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED). Certification 1 2 7 3 1

This product is available with certification to EN 10204 2.2. Note: All certification/inspection requirements must be stated at the time of order placement. Size and pipe connections DN150, flanged PN16 and ANSI 125 (Flanges to BS 10 Table D can be supplied to special order).
